The participants and the co-participants will have a wonderful opportunity in İstanbul, which is not only a historic but also a magnificent city, incredibly fascinating and vividly alive. Beneath the unchanging skyline of her domes and minarets, there is the continual hustle and bustle of the crowd, the rumbling of vehicles along the ancient cobbled streets, the incessant coming and going, and the cries of street sellers mingling with the sounds of shipping in the busy port. Together with satisfying scientific programme, the participants will joy the museums, ancient churches, palaces, great mosques, bazaars, the İstanbul Bogazi (Bosphorus) and Halic (Golden Horn). However long you stay, whether for just a few days or longer, your time will be spent wonderfully in this unforgettable city.
